Bucket fillers

Be a bucket filler

Rymfire has embraced a bully prevention program called Bucket Fillers.  Students fill their invisible buckets with good thoughts and feelings.  If a student is choosing to be mean, we teach the children to "use their lid"to avoid someone "dipping in their bucket".  This program encourages positive behavior.  Children see how very easy and rewarding it is to express kindness, appreciation and love on a daily basis.  We will be reading our book on Tuesday as it will be the first day we are all together. 
Yay!!
The children earn "Bucket Bucks" when they are caught demonstrating traits of being a bucket filler.  The bucket bucks are collected and drawn during lunch every other Friday by an administrator.  If your child's ticket is pulled, he/she wins a prize of their choice.
I feel our classroom color clip chart compliments the school-wide initiative to create an atmosphere of caring perfectly.  It is all about choice.  Please count on me to be an extension of the labor of love you have begun with your child in guiding toward good choices and positive behavior.

Warmly,
Mrs. Caronna
